I didn't have to write a measure method. I really wish the Flex controls had been written in a way that matches the OS's behavior better. I've had to write a lot of code (for example, this tooltip fix), just to make standard controls. Ah well. Better the way it is, than not existing at all. --- In [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "Alex Harui" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Wordwrapping is the responsibility of the renderer.
